My first full album in this realm, and the source for this blog's name. The first side of this album is some of my favorite OM. I never get tired of the gradual buildup to that crashing wall of sound.

Aesthetic Indian Indie Music deserves so much more love! 🫶🏻

- By Preetika Mehta

In the past few years, I’ve noticed this tread of ‘aesthetic’ music playlists making rounds across social media platforms, particularly Instagram and Youtube. And I absolutely love the concept, the idea of music curated for specific vibes and moods is a wonderful thing, especially for someone like me who has music playing all day. Having playlists that match your mood or vibe makes your environment so much more in tune with yourself and creates a better headspace to live in. It’s like background music in the story of your life.

But one thing that slightly disappointed me was the lack of Indian songs curated into these indie aesthetic playlists, even ones curated by Indian people. I don’t mean to say that there are none, Advait is one such artist and curator who has created some amazing Indian artist based playlists and wonderful edits and remixes. I highly recommend checking out his Youtube page, you’ll have a really good time.

But that doesn’t negate the serious lack of appreciation many indie artists and songs get. So, this is my small initiative to start appreciating them more and sharing them with you all as well. I’d also like to talk about the songs on the playlist and highlight stuff that makes the songs so beautiful and deserving of more attention.

List of 10 Indian Indie Songs that will give you serene vibes 🎶

Main Aur Tum By Rono

This song is a beautiful acoustic track with amazing lyrics that’ll instantly touch your heart. Rono has penned down words and emotions that every individual has felt and turned it into the perfect track to just sit with and feel. This is one of my go-to tracks on lonely nights when I miss people I’ve lost connection with. It’s a beautiful introspective melancholy that you sit with.

Tu Jo Kahe by Udbhav & Vedang

If you’re looking for a song that you can just vibe with and play on nights you silently drive on empty roads or just while staring out of your window. The production itself is very interesting, a fusion of modern beats with a traditional tabla. This is a song perfect to simply create a very chill vibe while you take a pause from life.

Ab Jo Mai Hoon by Jaynt

This one is sadly a shorter track that highlights the perspective of who you are in simplistic lyricism and catchy beats and beautiful guitar melody. It’s a track that is perfect for long drives leading to nowhere and moments where you just want to spend some peace and quiet with yourself.

Khayal by Hasan Raheem, Abdullah Kasumbi

Now this track is one that brings in a very expected vibe that one would think of when they think of RnB chill music. The song does have really good lyrics too, for those who are looking for more in a song that just the musicality of it. This song is one I’d recommend to people who prefer RnB and lo-fi beats to play in the background.

Fitoor by Karun

This track too is a blend of strings and RnB productions that is still pretty simplistic to highlight the vocals and rap of Karun. I generally prefer playing this on quiet drives and as a background for when I’m working on something. It’s one you’ll probably like if you liked Khayal or Tu Jo Kahe.

Kya Tum Naraaz Ho? By Tanmaya Bhatnagar

With a very raw quality using just an acoustic guitar in its production, this song is just sad. The lyrics are an apology for hurting someone, asking them to let it go, and promising to be better. Tanmaya’s voice is beautifully haunting and makes sadness simmer in your soul.

Parinde by Ratnang Singh

This one is a more positive and optimistic track, an almost wistful longing for your dreams. The song really is very beautiful and perfect for dreamers who look forward to their future. I prefer this song on happier and more optimistic days and peace that comes with loved friends around.

Tum ho Yahaan by Abhilasha Sinha

This is probably one of the most upbeat songs in this playlist with a more complex production using many instruments. Abhilasha’s voice is so melodic and something you’d expect to hear in the mainstream, with a slightly more pop sound. This song makes her voice stand out so beautifully that you can’t help but appreciate it. While most of the other songs I prefer in quieter nights, this is one I play on happier mornings.

Pehlu by Yoshi & Tarun

Another upbeat track that one would expect to hear in the mainstream, this song brings in beautiful vocals along with a really cool rap verse. A friend of mine describes the vibe this song brings as similar to that of memba, which I can’t deny. The song puts you in a happier mood and is also perfect for sunny days where there is optimism and hope in your heart

Khush To Hai Na by Osho Jain

This is once again a song for the lonely heart but with a very bright and optimistic ukulele instrumental. The production is very minimal and entirely acoustic with Osho’s beautiful voice in the spotlight. The song itself talks of missing someone and hoping that wherever they are, they are happy. Which makes the sadness have a positive glimmer of hope and acceptance. I love the feeling that the song communicates, it brings some happiness to the loneliness.

I hope this little playlist brings you a song or artist you fall in love with and that these artists get more recognition for their wonderful work. Do let me know if you found your sound among these songs or if you have some similar ones you’d like to recommend.

Gethsemane

Song by Om

Lyrics

Sings the advaitic—penitent rite to send. Toward redemption—strength attends the seeker. A sovereign dreadnaught breathes and approach the state serene. Interiorizer of the mind from world labyrinth. Nicodemus. Awaits in vigil weeping. The Arahat rising and the healing ghost descends. Lamentations cease enter rarefied light prevails. Devekut gleams sing freedom from tamasic field. And Ezekiel saw the wheel. Prana exits toward the azure locus. On vrittiless path he walks. Contemplative ascends. Temple-cave of the heart shrine—vigil on the mountain.

Do you ever find yourself bored with the same old tunes on the radio? Or maybe you're tired of listening to the chart-toppers that everyone seems to be raving about. Well, fear not! In this blog, I am going to introduce you to five incredibly talented but underrated artists that you absolutely must listen to. So, let's dive right in and explore these hidden gems in the music world.

The Local Train

Let's kick things off with The Local Train, a rock band hailing from New Delhi. Formed in 2008, this band is all about capturing the experiences of today's youth, often blending Hindi and Urdu seamlessly in their songs. Comprising members Raman Negi, Paras Thakur, Ramit Mehra, and Sahil Sarin, The Local Train has released two albums filled with amazing tracks that range from rocking anthems to slow, soul-soothing melodies.

One of their standout tracks is "Aaftab" from the album "Vaaqif."

If you're looking for more, give songs like "Choo Lo," "Vaaqif," and "Aaoge Tum Kabhi" a listen.

Anuv Jain

Anuv Jain may have been a singer for some time, but it was during the lockdown that he decided to go full-time, and we're glad he did. His music is dominated by acoustic sounds, with lyrics that resonate with emotions we all can relate to. In Anuv's words, "It's nice to see how people have liked my music, and more people are listening to it."

One of his tracks, "Mishri," reached over a million streams on Spotify. This slow and lyrical song is bound to tug at your heartstrings with its extraordinary lyrics. For more of his soulful tunes, try "Alag Aasmaan," "Baarishien," and "Riha."

Advait

Advait is perhaps the most underrated artist on our list. This musical maestro blends English and Hindi in his songs, creating haunting, slow, and stirring melodies. One of his remarkable tracks is "Tu Hain Kahaan," which incorporates elements from the soundtrack of "The Perks of Being a Wallflower." It's truly an amazing piece of art.

Advait's songs are like your best-kept secrets, those pieces of music that you don't want to share with anyone because they are your personal gateways to peace and warmth. Dive into his enchanting world with songs like "Befikar," "Manzile," and "Main So Gaya Hoon."

Prateek Kuhad

You might have heard Prateek Kuhad's name after his song "Kho Gaye Hum Kahan" featured in the movie "Baar Baar Dekho." However, this independent artist deserves much more spotlight than he currently has. His album "cold/mess" caught the attention of former US President Barack Obama, who listed it in his favorite music of 2019.

In 2020, Kuhad made history as the first Indian artist to sign with the American record label Elektra Records. His music effortlessly combines Hindi and English, offering a mix of slow and pop vibes. Don't miss out on tracks like "Kho Gaye Hum Kahan," "Kahan Ho Tum," "Cold/Mess," and "For Your Time."

When Chai Met Toast

Our final discovery takes us to the picturesque landscapes of Kerala, where "When Chai Met Toast" emerged. This band's enchanting music came to my attention when I stumbled upon their song "Firefly" while searching for tunes by Owl City. The band was originally a duo consisting of Ashwin and Achyuth, and later, Pai Sailesh and Palee Francis joined the lineup.

Their songs predominantly feature English lyrics, sprinkled with a touch of Hindi and Tamil. With tracks like "Beautiful World," "Khoj," and "Believe," they've created a refreshing soundscape that will leave you hitting the replay button. Thanks to platforms like YouTube, we have the chance to discover this incredible indie band. Once you listen to their music, you'll find it hard to stop playing their songs on loop.

Haqq al-Yaqin

Advaitic song. Ātman (IAST: ātman, Sanskrit: आत्मन्) is a central idea in Hindu philosophy and a foundational premise of Advaita Vedānta. It is a Sanskrit word that means "real self" of the individual, "essence", and soul.

Om // State of Non-Return 

Traveler now reach the stream. The astral flight adapter. From the pain-sheath life ascends the Non-returner sees. Empathy release me And the phoenix rise triumphant. And walks onto the certitude ground The soul's submergence ends.

From the rounds of rebirth He arrives onto the deathless. Light bores through the adjunct worlds The soul-galleon prevails. Liberates in wisdom to complete state of negation. The five roads subsumed by grace Emancipates from dream
